Toshiba Thrive failed to thrive after its initial release. It was released in July and shortly thereafter, consumer complaints rolled in. While the Toshiba Thrive has many great features, it seemed to go into sleep mode for no apparent reason. To awaken the Thrive from its unscheduled naptime, users had to reboot. Fortunately, the Android 3.2 update resolves this annoying issue.

To update the Toshiba Thrive with Android 3.2 check for a message sent by Toshiba Service Station to your tablet. You may also tap on "Apps" and locate the Service Station icon. Tap on "Check for Updates" and follow the instructions. Once the installation is complete, it should alleviate the sleep mode issue.

The Android 3.2 update may boost the popularity of the Toshiba Thrive. The tablet and unlocked cell phones market is a competitive industry. In many cases, manufacturers rush to get their tablets and mobile accessories to consumers. This inadvertently leads to overlooked issues such as a device with flaws.

The Toshiba Thrive received high reviews from customers; however, the sleep mode issue ruined the experience for many customers. The features of the Toshiba Thrive such as the 10.1-inch touch screen made it a hit initially. Since then, the response to this tablet has been lukewarm. However, the Android 3.2 update resolves several issues and like tablet accessories enhances the performance of the tablet. It improves the acceleration and screen rotation. In addition, the update added support for Xvid, AVI, mp3 audio, and DivX.

The Android 3.2 update may help the Toshiba Thrive regain its initial popularity. Unfortunately, it is difficult to recover from a flaw that caused customers to become frustrated with the use of the tablet. The Toshiba tablet may thrive once again, providing this update truly resolves the sleep mode issue. If customers continue to experience this issue, the Toshiba Thrive table may be put to sleep permanently. Protect, personalize and enhance your tablet performance with brand tablet accessories... from bags, covers, cases and stylus pens.
